The Crybaby Prince is Reborn, Where is the Prince Going?

Chapter 148 Imprisonment

When the word "divorce" was uttered, Emperor Xuan was stunned.

It’s not that current laws don’t allow women to initiate divorce, but because the person being divorced is the second son of the current emperor!

The emperor is still alive, and you are planning to divorce his son right in front of him?

Emperor Xuan smiled, perhaps laughing at Zhao Yuejiao's audacity and ignorance.

Zhao Yuejiao explained, "Your Majesty, both of my children died prematurely. This was all thanks to the Second Prince and the Second Imperial Concubine. I no longer wish to remain in this place that makes me sad. Since the Second Prince treated me as his legal wife when we married, I am willing to offer him one last vestige of affection and simply divorce."

Just a divorce? Could it be that she still wants to divorce her husband?

Zhao Yuejiao did have this plan, but she couldn't say it. If the divorce was successful, it would be a rare blessing to be able to leave the cage that suffocated her.

She bowed deeply and said earnestly, "I hope the emperor will grant my approval!"

Emperor Xuan heaved a sigh of relief and said with difficulty, "Approved."

"Thank you for your grace! I, Zhao, bow to thank you, Your Majesty!"

Zhao Yuejiao couldn't suppress the joy on her face, even covering up the fatigue after the miscarriage.

She can leave, she can finally leave!

Having been deserted, imprisoned and humiliated in the palace for several years, she had long since hated the Prince's Palace and everyone in it.

If possible, she really wanted to watch them die with her own eyes!

But it’s better this way now. She knows that she can’t chew too much. As long as she can leave alive, she can always outlast them!

"Then let's just disperse."

Emperor Xuan waved his hand and the imperial guards took Chu Lingle away.

Xiao Mingyi was reluctant to chase after him, but was ruthlessly pinned to the ground by the guards, and then dragged back to the room.

Then several people stood guard at the door and completely imprisoned the man.

Ji Zhonghuan and the imperial physician were left in the prince's mansion to verify the remaining details and insiders.

The slaves in the prince's mansion were driven out and sold again, and the mansion became deserted in an instant.

He Zhiyi knelt for a long time, not knowing whether Emperor Xuan suspected her or not, but she had never lied from the beginning, and none of this could be fake.

But until she was about to leave and return to the palace, Emperor Xuan never even gave her a glance.

She was also taken back by the Guards and was also under surveillance.

After everyone left, Zhao Yuejiao leaned on Cen Ying, took a few deep breaths, and coughed.

She said, "From now on I am free."

"Well," Cen Ying asked her, "What are your plans for the future?"

Zhao Yuejiao shook her head: "The emperor will not let me go."

Cen Ying was puzzled: "He already agreed to your divorce from Xiao Mingyi. The emperor has spoken with all his heart, so he will naturally not harm your life again."

Zhao Yuejiao didn't explain further, only saying, "Maybe."

Then she changed the subject: "Let's go and see Tongyun."

She said that if she didn't die, she would personally send Tong Yun off!

Tong Yun had been arrested when Zhao Yuejiao was rescued, but was now being interrogated by Ji Zhonghuan.

Tongyun was very obedient and answered whatever Ji Zhonghuan asked.

"Who ordered you to harm Concubine Zhao?"

"No one, I wanted her dead."

"reason?"

"There are so many reasons. Which one should I start with?" Tong Yun thought for a moment and said slowly, "Maybe it started when she saved me? I can't remember exactly. She was always arrogant to others and never treated the servants as human beings. When she was happy, she would give them some small gifts, and when she was unhappy, she would beat or scold them...

Later, there was a riot. I wanted to leave her, but she insisted on taking me with her. She wanted me to be her slave for the rest of my life...

When she married the Second Prince, Siyun and I were her dowry. I remember that the dowry maids of wealthy families could be the concubines...

After the Second Prince became His Highness, he married the Crown Princess. She is no longer favored, and Siyun and I are also neglected. This is not acceptable. When can I become the Second Prince's concubine?

Siyun was favored by the Second Prince and became his concubine, but I was still guarding her and being ignored...

If the Second Imperial Concubine hadn't been pregnant, how could Zhao Yuejiao still be favored? The Second Prince staying in her room every day makes my heart ache...

She was pregnant, but unfortunately, she was taken advantage of by the Second Prince. His Highness finally favored me, and he told me to strangle her to death after her child was born..."

Tong Yun talked a lot, and after being whipped a few times, he finally told Ji Zhonghuan what he wanted.

Just as Tong Yun finished explaining, Zhao Yuejiao came in: "Master Ji, I have a few words to say to her, is that okay?"

Ji Zhonghuan frowned slightly, but did not stop him: "It's easy."

"Thank you, sir."

Unfortunately, Zhao Yuejiao didn't want to talk to her at all. She suddenly took out a dagger from her sleeve and stabbed it straight into Tongyun's stomach.

The dagger was completely inserted, and Zhao Yuejiao twisted it hard.

The blood kept flowing all over Zhao Yuejiao's hands, and the wet and sticky feeling was very disgusting.

Zhao Yuejiao frowned and stared at Tong Yun without blinking. She said, "I said I would watch you die with my own eyes."

Tong Yun opened his mouth and a mouthful of blood overflowed from it. Only a hoarse sound came from his throat and he couldn't say anything.

Tong Yun's eyes were unfocused, his pupils gradually dilated, and he stared at Zhao Yuejiao with a curved mouth, seemingly unable to close his eyes until death.

Zhao Yuejiao let go of her hand, took two steps back, and bumped into Cen Ying's arms.

She turned around, buried her head in Cen Ying's shoulder, and cried.

Ji Zhonghuan looked at them, his head spinning. Why did they kill someone without a word? Should he be arrested or not?

Just now, Cen Ying showed Ji Zhonghuan Jinyou's sign, and he knew that Cen Ying was Jinyou's person. So when Jinyou's people condoned others to kill people, should he do anything or not?

Cen Ying cast a questioning look at them, and Ji Zhonghuan waved his hand helplessly and told them to leave quickly. They were no longer from the Second Prince's Mansion, so why were they still meddling here?

So Cen Ying and the other person ran very fast and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

At the Regent's Palace, when Jinyou received the news, Cen Ying had already settled Zhao Yuejiao. She personally returned to the palace to report to Jinyou about everything that had happened in recent days.

"Master, I'm back."

Cen Ying is a very heroic woman. Her features are somewhat similar to Cen Ye's. She is a bit cold when she is serious, but she is warm and welcoming when she speaks.

"How?" Jinyou asked.

Cen Ying recounted everything that had happened in the Second Prince's residence, and finally asked for instructions: "Zhao Yuejiao has already left the residence. She doesn't know the master's identity, but she is worried that the emperor will kill her to silence her..."

Killing people to silence them was something Emperor Xuan could do. He had few descendants, so it was not impossible for him to clear all the stains for his son.

Jinyou knocked on the desk: "Can you trust it?"

Cen Ying was delighted: "I guarantee with my life that Zhao Yuejiao will never betray the master."

"Send her to Fuying Garden, and you go with her."

"Yes, I obey!"

With the prince's words, Cen Ying knew that Zhao Yuejiao's life was saved.

"You go down."

Cen Ying bowed and rushed out of the house to settle Zhao Yuejiao.

On the other side of the palace, He Zhiyi was ordered to be under house arrest by Emperor Xuan as soon as she returned to Rende Palace.

There were imperial guards everywhere outside the palace gate. She was a little scared and wanted to find Jinyou to discuss things, but she was isolated and helpless in the palace and had no way to contact Jinyou.

Yu Shu went out and came back, her face full of anxiety: "My Lady, I can't get out. I gave them some money, but they refused to accept it and even refused to talk to me...

Your Majesty, do you think the Emperor wants to…"

Yu Shu pointed at her neck, and He Zhiyi immediately scolded her: "Fool, no way! The emperor is afraid of the prince, he won't do that, absolutely not..."
